Chan Sung Jung returned to the win column in a big way this past weekend at UFC on ESPN 25, with an impressive showing that earned him a unanimous decision against Dan Ige.
“The Korean Zombie” now has won three of his past four fights dating back to June 2019, with the defeat against upcoming featherweight title challenger Brian Ortega, who will meet champion Alexander Volkanovski later this year after their season of “The Ultimate Fighter” airs. Jung said he’s willing to step in on short notice if either Ortega or Volkanovski are forced to withdraw, but a popular suggestion for his next fight is former champ Max Holloway.
So what should it be? Does “The Korean Zombie” deserve a title shot, or does he need another win – and if so, against whom? Our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Nolan King, Danny Segura and Matthew Wells weighed in with host John Morgan in this week’s episode.
